This cute, clean, comfortable house was a perfect fit for our girls weekend. The kitchen was fully equipped, the beds were comfortable, and the location was excellent. It was an easy walk to shops and the sandy beach. Easy check in and great communication with the host.

I’m sorry the home wasn’t ready when you arrived. As soon as I was notified, I had the snow removal and cleaning teams there within the hour and offered alternative accommodations. I’m working on improving coverage to prevent this moving forward.
We enjoyed being able to stay closer to town and go to more of the local shops and restaurants. Close to the beach and the neighborhood is nice and quiet! Didn't use the kitchen but its gorgeous! Enjoyed the shower downstairs for days after the beach.
The house was comfortable, clean, and well located for our hiking trip in the Porkies. The kitchen and bathrooms were pretty well stocked and the beds were comfortable.
Our family group of four had a delightful time at this Ontonagon property. Really cool floor plan, clean, updated with all the amenities in kitchen and living areas. And we enjoyed mornings and evenings on the enclosed front porch. A short walk to Lake Superior, a short drive to Porcupine Mountains Wilderness State Park (highly recommend the Escarpment and Presque Isle River loop hikes) and a worth-the-trip drive to Houghton (highly recommend the Quincy Mine tour). Will hope for a repeat stay when back in the area.
I stayed with my partner and his family and we really enjoyed our time in Ontonagon. The house is lovely and in a great location. I would recommend and stay again. Our host looked after us and made sure we had everything needed to enjoy our stay.

Very nice stay
Had a great stay at this property. It worked perfect for our vacation to the Porkies! The house was very clean and well cared for. We had a blast using the ping pong table in the basement also. Would definitely stay here again.
Property was great. Loved the house and the location. There seems to be an error in the listing, though, which said it was something like 900 square feet. It almost made me not rent it because I thought it would be too small. I’m wondering if it’s more like 1900 square feet. The property was a very nice size despite what the listing says.

This house, host, and property manager were all extremely wonderful.
We enjoyed our stay at Elizabeth's place. Very roomy and well stocked. Super clean and good communication with host. Centrally located. We'll love to come back. Definately recommend. Thank you!
This house was amazing. Basement even had full extra living room and ping pong table with ball and paddles! Great neighborhood. We walked to Syl's restaurant, the coffee shop, and to the beach. All just a 5 or 10 minute walk. Great stay for visiting the Porcupine Mountains. Would recommend.

cute house
The house was very cute and a good location in Ontanagon. The upstairs shower was hard to get into without anything to hold on to as it is over a clawfoot tub.

Hi Pamela, we're glad to hear you found the house cute and enjoyed its convenient location in Ontanagon. The homeowner wanted to address your feedback about the upstairs shower:
-The clawfoot tub does present a unique challenge for some guests. While we provide a non-slip mat to help, we understand that additional support could be beneficial.
-There are two other showers available in the house, which may be more accessible for future use.
Thanks again for your valuable feedback as we continue to improve for future guests!
What a lovely home! Everything is so nice and very well thought out. Very charming! We truly enjoyed our stay and will definitely book this home again next year! Plenty of room for the whole family. My husband and I can’t wait to bring our children up for a visit. Very short walk to the beach or to town. This property has everything you’ll need for a wonderful stay!
Lots of room (and rooms). Well maintained. Excellent furnishings. Fully supplied. Close to Lake Superior. Less than one block from the sheriff's office. We are happy we stayed here!
